Volume 1: Inaugural Edition

Introduction From The Editor

The Krista Foundation for Global Citizenship has sponsored the creation of The Global Citizen to provide a place for an intergenerational exploration of these questions. In particular, we hope to gather together and share specific experiences and reflections from those who are engaging global issues like poverty, race/culture/gender friction, and environmental stress. The majority of our contributors are young Christian activists who have chosen a path of service for the love and hope of humanity and the planet. "Veteran" global citizens, who model ways for living a lifelong ethic of service, have been invited to contribute their experience and wisdom as well. Read the full introduction.

Jeremy Funk

This poem was written by Krista's good friend Jeremy in Santa Cruz, Bolivia for Krista Hunt Ausland on the night of Krista's death. Aaron Ausland writes: "Jeremy Funk was a co-worker of ours who was teaching in Bolivia. He has cerebral palsy, which may help you understand some of the imagery in his poem. He is a dear friend and a gifted writer, a gentleman and a scholar. This poem, this song of love and lamentation will always be very dear to me."
